Witold Bulikowski Obituary

Witold Bulikowski, 86, of Worcester, passed away peacefully at home after a long battle with cancer.

Witold was born in Poland and was a survivor of K.L. Auschwitz (1941-1944). Shortly after that he met and married his loving wife, Halina (March 11, 1947). Witold spoke English, Polish and German fluently so after escaping the hell of Auschwitz he served as an interpreter for the United Nation Relief and Rehabilitation Administration where he helped many Polish refugees, many of whom did not speak English.

Witold and Halina had a son Casmir in 1949 in Germany and later came to the United States to live, work and raise two more sons, John Z. Bulikowski and Witold Bulikowski, Jr. He is survived by his wife Halina, three sons, Casmir, John and Witold Bulikowski Jr., daughters-in-law Elly, Carol and Robin Bulikowski and his beloved grandchildren, Leslie, Gregory, Christine, and Catherine Bulikowski.

He will always be remembered for his giving spirit, quick wit, and always having a smile on his face and joy in his heart even after suffering through so much. Witold became a patriot after immigrating here. He frequently stated, "America is the greatest country in the world!"

There are no calling hours and the service is private for family. HENRY-DIRSA FUNERAL HOME, 33 Ward St., is assisting the family.

Dear John and family;
I as sorry to hear of your loss, I understand how difficult it is to lose a parent. My condolences to you and your family. From reading the obituary, I see he had a tough life in Poland having been in Aucshwitz of which I visited last year when I was in Poland.
I am sure he had a happier life moving forward and having a loving family.

Hi Casmir--
Sorry to hear bout your father. I guess he had a hard life at the beginning, but things turned out better for him.
I'm still in the area; in fact I worked a few doors down from North High and I could even see into Mr Corsun's math classroom.
Drop me an email whenever.

Hi Casmir--
Sorry to hear about your father. Sounds like he had a tough life, but it got better toward the end.
I'm still around the Worcester area. In fact, my last job was about two doors down from North High. I could see into Mr Corsun's classroom! Drop me a note if you feel so inclined.
